FIELD TRIPS
What to Expect: A Sample Day at Gym-Kinetics
Here’s a look at how your field trip might unfold:
-
Arrival & Warm-Up: As students arrive, we welcome them with a fun group warm-up, such as stretching, games, and an energetic icebreaker to get bodies moving and smiles on faces.
-
Guided Stations: We lead rotating stations, such as balance beams, tumbling mats, agility ladders, mini trampolines, foam pits, and obstacle courses. Each station has a coach to encourage and ensure success.
-
Team Challenges: Students break into small teams for friendly competitions, relay races, obstacle escalades, or “ninja warrior” style courses where cooperation pays off.
-
Free Movement Time: After structured circuits, we open up zones for open exploration. Kids can revisit favorite areas, try a new skill, or just enjoy free play in a safe, supervised space.
-
Cool-Down & Reflection: We end with a gentle group cool-down and a brief reflection circle. Kids share a highlight, a challenge they overcame, or a goal for next time.
Throughout the day, our coaches circulate, offer encouragement, help with skill progressions, and maintain both structure and flexibility so the experience stays fun and empowering.
Customizing Your Trip to Fit Your Needs
We know each group is different; that’s why we offer customization:
-
Half-day or full-day options
-
Themed sessions (e.g., gymnastics fundamentals, ninja obstacle, team building)
-
Grade-level focus (younger kids get more play, older groups can try advanced challenges)
-
Lunch or snack scheduling: we can help coordinate a picnic or indoor break
-
Multiple group splits: if you have mixed ages, we’ll design parallel tracks
Just tell us your group size, age range, goals, and preferred schedule. We’ll build an itinerary you’ll be proud to offer families, administrators, and students.
